titoudou Shop Carine Olten, SO What do you enjoy most about summer? I like it when the temperature is above 30. Otherwise, it's not totally summertime for me :D Do you have any summer traditions amongst your family or friends?
Carine, maker of titoudou
We do enjoy barbecues together as often as we can. Sharing food, taking time and discussing about everything till late. What is your favorite accomplishment with your Etsy Shop? I am very happy that I get 5-stars reviews and that customers come back for a second order and more. Building a relationship with them, understanding and fulfilling their needs is definitely one of my main goals.

Large Mandala Violet Earrings
The Misty Corner Shop What is your favorite creation? Currently, I am very proud of my Light Grey Stone Pearl Polymer Clay Earrings (I have uploaded a picture for the lookbook). The reason I chose them is because they have the color and texture of stones in the bright blue sea and freshwater pearls of white and grey-ish color; they look so simple and yet very elegant and fresh and they were purely inspired by the summers spent at the sea and lakes. Blue spiral earrings with feathers
What inspires you? It can be a beautiful flower, the night sky, stone patterns, even books. I seem to find the inspiration all over the place, that is why my jewelry goes from clean, modern, sharp forms to flower patterns and marble designs.

“As I live by the river Aare, I love going there for long grilling afternoons with my friends and just enjoy the good food, some music and great company. I really enjoy the night hot weather and long days, the feeling of freedom and happiness summer brings.” - Kristi
Where to go in Switzerland this summer Are you spending some time in Switzerland this summer and want to have the feeling that you are far away on holidays? Or do you want to avoid the heat of summer? Our makers shared their favorite places in Switzerland with us. Canton Tessin was most popular amongst several of our makers. Like the majority of Swiss people, they too like to have mountains, a lake and great food and wine all at the same time. You may wish to avoid the hot days, in that case, swimming (or boating) in a river like the Aare (BE) or in a lake (our makers made special recommendations for the Schwarzsee (FR) and Hallwilersee (AG)) might just be the go-to for you. But don’t forget the forests for a cool or picnic, too.
Finally, if you need an idea for a nice family outing, our makers recommend the Saint Peter island (BE) or the Küsnacht peninsula (ZH). You can start your day with a little boat ride, followed by a comfortable stroll, enjoy a delicious local lunch or bring a picnic with you and cool down with a swim in the lake. Everything to make everyone happy, from tiny tots to grandparents.
